Theory

[edit]

Raga Bhairavi is often referred to as the queen of morning Ragas. It produces a rich, devotional atmosphere especially suitable for the genres of Bhajan and the light classical form of Thumri. The Rishabh and Dhaivat used here are oscillating which is strongly recommended in this Raga and it makes the Raag mood intense.[2]

Rishabh and Pancham are occasionally skipped in Aaroh, like: S G m d P or G m d N S'. But in Avroh, Rishabh and Pancham are Deergh, like S' N d P or P m G m r r S. In Avroh, Gandhar is skipped, like: G m r S. Madhyam is an important note.[3]

Variants

[edit]

The rich culture of Bhairavi being the closing Raga for any formal performance has produced, also, many newly explored shades of the Raga:

  • Shuddha Bhairavi (Bhairavi with no deviations from the prescribed notes and movements)
  • Sindhu Bhairavi (added Shuddha Dha)
  • Jangla Bhairavi
